new year, new giveaway

January 7, 2013

Brrrrrr.  It’s chilly at the beach.  My Dad who lives much further north laughed yesterday when I told him it was cold here.  Really, how cold, he prodded?  Yeah, yeah, I know it’s not below zero cold, but when you live at the beach, 40 is plenty cold.  I love winter, and I miss snow. [...]

if only I were Swedish

December 27, 2012

I’m always wishing that Christmas lasted just a little bit longer.  Turns out Swedes stretch the season of light all the way until January 13 with one last Christmas party. The grown-ups pack away the Christmas decorations while the costumed children eat the last of the wrapped candies left on the tree. Then out goes the [...]

wild hair

November 13, 2011

My littlest one has just enough hair to wear our adorable felt clips.  Trouble is I just can’t quite decide which is my favorite.  And while I was uploading a few new images, I decided that we should put all the adorable clips on sale, but just for a few days.  They make great stocking [...]

November 4, 2011

Dear October, Where did you go?  When I last turned around you were right there beside me.  Now it seems you’ve gone and left without so much as a goodbye.  You have always been my favorite amongst the twelve.  It’s ok.  No hard feelings.  I’ll see you next year. All the best, Tara and the [...]
